That makes me so happy. I ordered some and I'm waiting to use it. Looks superb. By the way. After some problems with acrylic matte clear (Tamiya and Gunze) especially in winter with the cold and wet weather started to use the matte clear of Alclad and enjoyed it. I thought the problems, after so much putty and sand, were over. Started by the decals on the left side. The two stars left in two pieces. Was not difficult to repair. The decal TexasLonghorn broke in four or five pieces . Luckily I managed to unite all the bits and did not seem to look bad. Then the right side. Curious! No problem . Now are missing stencils. Regards ajcmac

Thank mrt51. Would never know about the decal troubles AJ, looks good from here! wbill76As I said at the beginning was a friend who got me the decals. They are no longer new. I finished the stencils and applied a new layer of gloss clear of Alclad. Now one wash and flat clear also of Alclad. Regards ajcmac

Looking great AJ. wouldn't know you've had the decal problems. They look good. Decals are fickle things. I changed to Aqua Gloss too and really like it better than all others. Great build.

Turned out great AJ. Nice finish. Always dread the decals but you made a great recovery.
